General Noob Post-Root Question

Hey guys, I just rooted my phone this weekend, installed busybox, and sprecovery, disabled OTA, but not much else...yet.

As I'm reading about the upcoming 2.1 patch, I'm wondering, what if an update comes out with really good features, how can we install that if we're rooted? I'm guessing that those features are individually available to rooted phones but I'm new to this so I'm not sure.

You don't need to unroot your phone, you will just need to go into sprecovery boot menu and hit allow update.zip and then install update.zip. SPR blocks OTA updates by default that's how you override it.

Do you mean after he manually downloads from Google whenever they release it?

Thanks for the reply.

So the update.zip file that will be in the root of my phone will be the one from Verizon (or is it Moto?)? Even if I have OTA off?
